Following GW down the same road that lead to their Orks using choppas, burnas and shootas.

Are you impugning Ork culture?

Racist.

Racist.
Orks are imposters - Unterorks. The only true Orcs are those of Tolkien lineage, with swarthy skins not green.

Orcs

Quote from: Last Hussar on 17 October 2024, 06:25:39 PMSo you judge on skin colour...

It's like a uniform. Historically correct orcs are swarthy in colour not green. Having green orcs is like painting your Napoleonic British with Purple uniforms or the Russians with orange uniforms, It is just not right.

Being a South African, I'd better keep out of this debate.

I don't see this thread heading in a healthy direction on it's current trajectory. Maybe we should stop now?

But . . .
Quote. . . Historically correct orcs . . .

Should I paint Chieftains black with green stripes, or green with black stripes?

Based on the Voynich Manuscript Orcs (or Orks or Orques) are green. This predates Tolkien by at least three hundred years
Encumbered by Idjits, we pressed on

Orcs

Historically correct is from the writings of his Holiness J.R.R Tolkien. Anything else is Heresy :)

And we are only having a banter on the colour of of Orcs..... unless anyone has ever seen one (when they were sober)
